For the latest word on the secrets of Stonehenge, you can read National Geographic Magazine's cover story. You can watch Stonehenge Decoded, the new National Geographic Channel documentary film. Or you can glean insights from the interview with Nigel Tufnel of Spinal Tap, who puts forth his own personal theory: One man built it. Duncan was his name. "Didn't have last names then," Tufnel explains. And how did Duncan do it? Tufnel believes "Dunca" would say: "Well I got myself a drill and I built it, you know."

In a series of videos, Tufnel expounds on Stonehenge, the language of potatoes, and the National Geographic Channel:

Interviewer: "Do you ever watch the National Geographic Channel?"
Nigel Tufnel: "Yes and no."
Interviewer: "Is that a no?
Nigel Tufnel: "It's a no. It's that it's not good. It's hard to follow. They should do puppet shows. It explains it better."

We are thankful he was not asked to comment on the magazine.
